El Tamarino Restaurant is the perfect place to introduce new-old friends to old-old friends. I met up with old-old friend Joe, whom I haven't seen since we were both in Kandahar, Afghanistan four years ago. We were both combat correspondents, and both surprised to see each other as sergeants in Afghanistan. The last time we had been in the same place before that we were privates, fresh from boot camp at Defense Information School.
